There are plenty that are better. How much are you willing to spend? For the tour pak you will need a spacer. I use the Vtwin adapter it is a good looking piece.

Price isn’t a huge concern. If I have to buy the system in pieces and wait til I have everything to do the install it’s not a huge deal.

Fireball jack- do you have a picture of the vtwin adapters installed on your tour pak?

A lot of guys here get their MMats from Shane at Audio Advantage in SC. Faith City Cycles in Conroe, TX. usually always has them in stock, you'd have to call them as I don't think they have an online store.

As for better speakers sure there are but that usually coincides with bigger powered amps. Are you planning on entering audio competitions? If not the MMats mated to a stinger, a Massive, or an MMats 4110 will more than satisfy you.

Ordered an 8ga amp wiring kit and stinger 1.5ft rca’s today when I woke up from night shift. Adapters and speakers are next on the list. Doing a cam install on my next few days off so the stereo will be on hold till the speakers are ordered and back in stock. Moving forward anyhow! Haha

Here is a picture of the Vtwin speaker adapter plate. It also comes with it's own grill. I didn't use the grill as I chose to use some JL Audio grills I had to match the ones I used in the lowers.

Fathead offers wiring kits with the head units they sell, don’t they? Talk to them about what wiring you need. They might be able to get you something that is plug and play.

Yes, the head unit comes with all the wiring ready to plug and play. I just had to source the amp wiring and rca’s separately.

what are you using for the amp to rear speaker wiring? Are you doing anything to allow you to easily disconnect and remove the tour pack?
